in Kidney Cancer #1

When I scheduled these scans six months ago, never in a million years would I have imagined that it'd be in the middle of a worldwide pandemic with social distancing and self-quarantining. The handful of people in the waiting room were super upbeat and chatty. I think being self-quarantined has made them all punchy for human interaction. 

Had an MRI of the abdomen and pelvis - X-Ray of the chest. My doctor is great about emailing me right away with the results as soon as he gets them. The results: NED! 

[Side rant: I really wish these tests would stop describing my reproductive organs are "unremarkable". i mean, really...? :) ] 

Anyways, back to working from home and commenting on how weird life is right now. Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!

    Congratulations Eugene, so

    Congratulations Eugene, so glad to hear your news. It is horrible how things have been changed since last week, I was always questioning how did those survive the quarantine period in the Diamond Princess, especially the ones in the interior room....

    take care and stay healthy.

    Congrats on being NED.

    LMAO at "unremarkable reproductive organs".  Nothing like pumping a guy's ego.....pun intended.
